At-will employment my friend. Severance is just them trying to smooth it over
Which org? Reason for lay-off if I may ask?
If you get anything it will be the standard package. If you get a lawyer involved he/she will end up with 20% of your standard package.
Member of a protected class only matters if the RIF is disproportionately affecting said class, rather than a uniform RIF.
People like you give protected class a bad name
Yes. You can do that. Contact an attorney ASAP.
If you believe your status as a member of a protected class contributed to the reason your are being let go then you should speak with an employment lawyer about your situation. However, if you believe that your status as a member of a protected class means you can use that fact, on its own, to strong-arm them into paying you more than your RIF'ed peers ... well... in bird culture this is considered a dick move.
